At The Good Care Group, live-in care provides the opportunity to spend meaningful time with your clients to ensure they have the best quality of life. Unlike working in domiciliary care where, due to the time pressures, you may not get the chance to spend as much time exploring the outdoors and experiencing all the things your client enjoys.
One of our Carers, Michelle, shares how she spent the day in the sunshine with her client Mrs D:
“With a bit of respite in the temperature, we struck whilst the iron was hot! Following Mrs D having an express manicure this morning, I asked if she would like to picnic in the park by the pond, she loved the idea of this. We grabbed a few snacks from the first shop and wheelchaired to Inverleith Park. There were lovely views and we also hung on for the 1 o’clock gun from the castle! We went the long way home as Mrs D requested. We had a superb time”.
